Abstract
A scale for precise weighing measurements utilizing a strain gauge load cell includes a weighing platform which is cantilevered to one side of the load cell in order to permit a high profile load cell to be used while retaining a low platform height. An overload protection system causes the platform to bottom out against a fixed supporting base when a predetermined load is exceeded.
